APPRAISAL

Administrative Historical

These records are of long-term value because they document the activities of the bureau as a whole and show its policies, achievements, and activities. However, those records that deal with day-to-day situations have only an administrative value. Records under "1" include memoranda such as notices of holidays or charity and welfare fund appeals. Records under "2" relate to the office organization, staffing, procedures, and communications; the day-to-day administration of office personnel; supplies and office services and equipment requests and receipts; and the use of office space and utilities. Also, records that are duplicates of information filed elsewhere.
